CSS: make the content more readable

The Roboto Slab font is hard to read (at least for me). Switch to Droid
Sans and make the text a bit smaller.

Change the background of the page to white (again), and change the
background color for the code snippets.

Add text decoration for headlines (similar to org-bullet).
